6th Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Only 1lb lower when winning over 9.4f here in March; hasn't offered a lot since then but clearly capable if rediscovering his touch. |

14th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Off the mark (eighth attempt) when landing a Wolverhampton handicap (9.4f, AW) in March but he's not come close to that form in three runs since; has something to prove back on turf and others are more convincing. |

8th May 2025 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Three qualifying runs on turf, when finishing last at around 6f; off the mark at the eighth attempt when landing a Wolverhampton handicap (9.5f) in March and was making inroads from the rear when nearly coming down over that C&D last time; switches back to turf and it would be no surprise if he leaves previous efforts on this surface well behind. |

28th Jul 2026 Good To Yielding 1m 0f 123y |
9st 13lb |
One of two for yard; AW and turf winner for James Ferguson; off the mark for this stable on latest at Bellewstown (1m, good); 8lb rise makes things tougher but this prominent racer is well drawn and can't be discounted for last year's winning yard. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 195y |
9st 5lb |
Won twice for James Ferguson last year; finding her feet for new yard and was clear over 1f out before reeled in at Leopardstown (1m, good; Bucaneer's Spirit fourth); well drawn for one who likes to be up there; likely contender. |

11-race maiden she ran respectably when third of seven over C&D (first-time visor) 12 days ago and she's unexposed at this trip; could be in the mix if he she can find a bit extra. |

19th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Fair Flat racer at up to 1m6f with 4-22 strike-rate; placed on all three hurdling starts, most recently when third at Newton Abbot (2m1f, good to soft) last month, and has good each-way claims again. |
6/1 |

19th Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 167y Class 4 |
11st 4lb |
Fair Flat racer at up to 1m6f with 4-22 strike-rate; close second on hurdle debut at Stratford (good to firm) before finishing a well-held third behind a classy sort back there a month ago; can go well. |

Fair Flat racer at up to 1m6f with 4-22 strike-rate; took pretty well to hurdling and belied 20-1 odds when second (just ahead of Maskarvel) over C&D (good to firm) last month and has each-way claims at least. |

22nd Sep 2025 Good To Soft 2m 1f 162y Class 4 |

Sole success on the Flat came at Jersey in June; moderate otherwise and has his work cut out on hurdling debut. |

28th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 2m 0f 0y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
Gambled on when just failing to make winning handicap debut (1m, AW) in February; prominent in the market all starts since although it took a trip to Jersey (2m; won easily) on penultimate run to get off the mark; wore cheekpieces for the third time when he proved underwhelming in a Yarrmouth classified (11.5f, pulled hard) six weeks ago; now goes back up in trip with no headgear. |

16th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 104y Class 6 |
8st 13lb |
Gambled on when just failing to make a winning handicap debut in February and he's been prominent in the market all starts since, including when third of 13 in his first classified at Windsor (1m3.5f, good to firm) last month; it took a trip to Jersey (2m; won easily) to get him off the mark 19 days ago but he's respected. |

3rd Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 6 |

Confirmed the promise of recent runs when scoring for the second time at Bath (1m, firm) last month; 5lb rise makes this tougher but holds place claims at least. |

15th Jul 2026 Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Went down by only a head over C&D (firm) in April; things didn't go his way (slightly hampered) when fourth of 11 at Windsor (1m, good to firm) 16 days ago; likely to go well. |

26th Jun 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
12-race maiden who has been well beaten in his last two runs but he failed to see out 1m2f last time and was placed a few times earlier in the year, going close over C&D in March; each-way possible now back down in trip. |
14/1 |

6th 8 (5) |
12th Jun 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Went close off 2lb higher at Newcastle (1m, AW) in March and was good third at Yarmouth next time, but his form has cooled in last two starts; has bit to prove again and he's now 0-11; reapplied blinkers replace cheekpieces. |
10/1 |

6th 4 (3) |
14th May 2025 Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
0-10 but he's been generally consistent since joining this yard in January; behind Paragon when fourth of 13 at Windsor (1m, good to firm) last week and needs a bit more in the added cheekpieces (has tried blinkers and hood) to turn those placings around. |
